QUESTION 1
In what ways does your media product, use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
This is a Prezi I made for the first question

QUESTION 3
What have you learned from your audience feedback?
Here is a goanimate I made about my audience feedback.
Here is a goanimate I made about my audience feedback.
For my audience feedback I
have learnt that my music video works well with my song. The first
question I asked “was do you think that the narrative to my music video works
well with the song?” From the audience feedback I received the comments said
that the music video works well with the song because 'the use of mise-en-scene
relates to the song title’ and the other feedback I was given said that it
works well 'because it isnt a conventional song or video'. The feedback was
good because I aimed to make the skating a main part of it and also represent
the lyrics through narrative.
For my second question I asked was “taking the genre of
music into consideration, do you think I chose the best actors?” All of the
feedback forms said that I had the right actors to the music genre. All three
of the replies had a positive comment on the genre and how the actors fitted
into it. The replies said 'all fits well' and 'that the like the genre' and
'that they look the part'. I am happy that the feedback I got was positive and
that they thought that the actors belonged in the video and also the genre of
music in which the song is from.
My third question that I asked on my feedback form was “do
you think that the music video looks like it belongs in the genre of music it
is associated too?” again all of the feedback forms said that my music video
belongs in the genre of music. One of the comments I had was saying that the
not serious parts fit in well and the other reply I had was saying that the
actors looked the part to be in the music video. This was another positive
comment about my music video because I had managed to make the video look like
one that would be associated with that genre of music. I believe using some
unconventional things have worked well in the end.
The last question I asked on my audience feedback was “what
improvements could I have made to make the music video better?” I had mixed
responses for this question and all gave possible improvements. One of the
responses was make it a bit lighter. This is an improvement which could be made
and I am aware of that. The reason why it was so dark is because it was filmed
mainly on a night as myself and actors have college/work in the day time. One
of the other responses was to include more skating shots. I didn’t want to make
the full video into a skating video because it wouldn’t have the same effect
and be less associated with the genre. The last improvement which could be made
is making the shots match the song lyrics. I should have put lip syncing into
the music video but I wanted to do a narrative and I didn’t want to put any
more in.
The next set of questions I asked were about my ancillary
text:
The first question I asked about my ancillary text was “do
you think my ancillary text works well with my music video?” All three
responses said yes and I got two comments on why it works well with my music
video. One of the responses was because the images are taken from the
narrative. The images I used were taken from Dafont and fitted in with the
skating. But the images on the front and back were taken in town. The other
comment was that they worked well together because the images fits in with the
location I used to film.
The next question I asked was “do you think my ancillary
text would look better in more detail?” All three of the answers came back as
no. This is because no more detail is needed on either of the ancillary texts
and also that too much would ruin it. The next question run alongside this one
and it was do you think my ancillary text could be improved? One of the answers
was no and no comment was left but the other two answers both said yes. And the
reason for improving my ancillary would just be changing the font.
The last question I asked was “overall, what is your opinion
on my music video and ancillary texts?” I got two responses for this question
and the responses said that the music video would look better if it had more
skating in and that the ancillary text works well alongside the music video.
Overall, even though I know there is a lot of improving I
could do to my music video to make it better there has been a lot of positive
feedback from the people who participated in watching my video and replying
through the audience feedback form. I am happy with the feedback I have
received and that also the music video represents the genre of music which the
song belongs to because that was the one thing I was worried about throughout
the making of my music video.
